The Kellgren and Lawrence system is a common method of classifying the severity of osteoarthritis (OA) using five grades.. 2 Although this entity is recognized by some clinicians on the basis of clinical presentation, it receives little attention in the orthopaedic, rheumatology, and radiology literature. MRI, as expected, is more sensitive and specific, and will demonstrate: soft-tissue swelling anterior to the tibial tuberosity; loss of the sharp inferior angle of the infrapatellar fat pad (Hoffa fat pad) thickening and oedema of the distal patellar tendon; infrapatellar bursitis (clergyman's knee) It is suggested to be due to disruption of the meniscotibial ligaments, or as a result of a tear of the In ACL-deficient knees, the incidence is reported at ~12.5% (range 9-17%) 3. absent bow tie sign - on The radiological report should include a description of the following 1: location and grade of the injury (sprain, partial tear, disruption) fat pad impingement syndromes. Baker cysts, or popliteal cysts, are fluid-filled distended synovial-lined lesions arising in the popliteal fossa between the medial head of the gastrocnemius and the semimembranosus tendons via a communication with the knee joint.They are usually located at or below the joint line. The ankle joint is comprised of the tibia, fibula and talus as well as the supporting ligaments, muscles and neurovascular bundles. Medial patellar plica syndrome are symptoms that can be associated with the presence of synovial plicae of the knee (most commonly the medial plica).
